How to Score High Marks in Math

Mathematics is often considered as a boring
and dry subject, but it can actually be very interesting. Not only that being
good at calculations earn one grades but it also pays in currency on the later
level. This is so because experts are highly paid to teach it. But at first,
the proof of being good at it comes from the grades scored. Here are a few
things that one can do to secure higher grades.

No
Leaves:

It is very true that if a student leaves one
class of another subject, the damage caused does not come close to that caused
by leaving a class. The concept maths is based on
linking the dots and linking them making a chain resulting in the learning of
the entire concept. Attending all the classes helps in streamlining processes,
formulas and equations, not to mention concepts involved in each chapter. Leaving
one class breaks that chain and nothing comes close to the understanding. Also,
while in class, other subjects show more leniencies towards cross talking,
dozing off and not listening carefully to the teacher than this. There is
simply no room for being sloppy in listening to the teacher and looking at the
board. Keep a note of everything mentioned in the class even if it is rough
work because while doing homework, many concepts become vague and can be
clarified keeping the original lecture in mind.

Do
Home Work Instantly:

Concept maths requires instant renewal and refreshing of
lecture because for as long as the lecture is fresh in the mind, it can be
practiced and is of any use. Commonly, no teacher solves all the questions in
the class and leaves the most out for students to practice and solve for
themselves. Doing this ensures that the course is covered and the students get
to practice what they learn at school. Slacking at homework and delaying it is
the worst thing that a student can do. Doing each day’s work there and then
helps in surfacing all the troubles that can ever prevail and they can be
resolved in time. Some easier questions are well understood on the first time,
but the tougher ones need to be repeatedly practiced several times before they
are well understood.

Consult
the Teacher:

There is barely a teacher who does not find it
irritating when a student comes to ask a question after the class. For this
reason, many students simply shy away and avoid asking something outside of the
class or after the class timing. But, it is worth knowing that it is included
in the responsibilities of a teacher to give time to students who visit them in
their office times and to entertain them with the solutions that they seek.
Knowing this, a student can simply go and consult the teacher about numerical problems.
It is also nothing to be ashamed of since everyone knows concept maths is tough to understand and to come around
all by oneself.

More
than one Way:

Almost every calculus problem has more than
one solution. It is a well appreciated practice to solve a question in more
ways than one. Doing this does not only clarify the concept of the question but
also open another domain of thinking about the course. This does take a lot of
time because while experimenting, one makes it wrong several times before he or
she makes it through alright. This is in fact the beauty of concept
maths that it gives
freedom to solve question is more ways where some methods come in handy in
solving questions instantly during entrance and global assessment tests.
